Sure thing, friend.

The 4-conductor wire from the phone "protector" (grey box outside the
house or in the basement) gets connected as follows. Do the connections
at the Power 832 (or any other alarm control panel) first so you don't
disable the phone line any longer than necessary.

Inside the RJ-31X jack (which should have been ordered with the security
system) are 8 terminal screws. You only need 4 of them. The others are
(for the moment) left unused. You will notice that there are red, green,
slate (grey) and brown leads from the jack 4 of to the terminals inside
the RJ-31X jack. These are the terminals you need. If you need an RJ-31X
jack and a USOC-620 cord, I sell the set for $6 on my Web site.

1. Connect the red conductor to the screw terminal with the red lead on
it.
2. Connect the green conductor to the screw terminal with the green lead
on it.
3. Connect the yellow (or white) conductor to the screw terminal with
the slate lead on it.
4. Connect the black conductor to the screw terminal with the brown lead
on it.

There is a USOC-620 cord that plugs into the RJ-31X jack. It has 8
conductors and looks a lot like a regular modular phone cord, except
it's bigger and has spade terminals on one end. Trim off flat, forked
part of the spade lugs, leaving the metal crimping part intact since the
spade terminals won't fit into the connectors on your PC5010 (Power 832
control panel). The only leads that matter for now are the red, green,
brown and slate ones. Wrap tape around the others and secure them so
they don't accidentally short out terminals or components on the PC5010.

Insert the leads into the four holes on the small terminal strip on the
lower right of the PC5010 as follows:

Red   into Ring
Green into Tip
Slate into R-1
Brown into T-1

While you're at it, be sure you have a ground lead connected to "EGND"
to protect the panel from surges and lightning activity.

Now it's time to attach the 4-conductor wire to the "protector" where
the phones are attached to the house. You will need a couple of crimp
connectors or solder and tape to do this right. Crimps are the preferred
method for connecting phone hookups, but solder will work.

Open the protector. Inside you will notice one or more pairs of wires
from the house phone jacks. These are usually red and green, but
sometimes are white/blue striped pairs or other colors (especially if
you have several phone lines). Make note of which terminal has the red
wires on it and which has green. For other color combinations, use a
volt meter. With the phones on the hook (no one using the phones), there
should be from 48 to 51 Volts DC. The red goes to the negative. NOTE
THIS, since it's opposite most other things. The green goes to negative.

OK, take all the house wires off the posts or terminals. Connect the red
and green leads from the RJ-31X jack to the posts that had the red and
green wires on them (- and + respectively, if you lose your notes). Now
splice all the red wires from the house phone jacks to the yellow wire
from the RJ-31X. Finally, splice all the green wires from the house
phone jacks to the black lead from the RJ-31X jack. If you wired it
correctly, all the phones in the house will work as before. Test them
before you proceed.

OK, last step. Plug the USOC-620 cord into the RJ-31X jack. I have
attached a JPG image of the jack and cord with wiring labels added.

E-mail me if you'd like more information.

RLBass
